After Xiao Tao finished speaking, she went to the kitchen. After reheating the food, she immediately brought it back to Shu'er's room. Because the food was very appetizing, Shu'er was very happy to eat it.
After Shu'er finished eating, Xiao Tao specially prepared some tea fruits for her. As Shu'er drank tea, she felt like a master in another courtyard. However, she had already eaten and drank enough, but the young master had not yet
Coming back from Yun He's courtyard. Could it be that the young master of the Zhao family plans to stay in Yun He's courtyard?
After Yun He entered the other courtyard, she stole the limelight. Although what she said that day was unpleasant, everyone in the mansion spoke for Yun He.
Thinking of this, Shu Er couldn't drink the tea anymore. Putting down the tea cup, Shu Er sighed and looked out the window, expecting the young master to come back as soon as possible.
Xiao Tao naturally saw Shu Er's strange behavior and quickly asked: "Girl, are you worried about something?"
"What's on my mind? Don't you know what's on my mind?" Shu'er said.
"Is it for the young master?" Xiao Tao asked.
"Just now you said that the young master is thinking about me, but in the blink of an eye he went to Yun He's yard and never came back. If he really has me in his heart, how could he be like this?" Shu'er said sadly.
"Girl, the young master treats the girls in the house very well. Even in the capital, the young master treated the ladies in the backyard with the same love. I have never heard that the young master will favor any lady in particular, so don't worry, girl."
Xiaotao said.
"It is precisely because of this that I am like this. Since the young master brought me back from Ningxiang, he should not have left me alone in this side room." Shu'er said.
"Girl, you are the first girl who can live in the main courtyard. Xiaotao didn't lie to you. You must know that when we were in the capital, those ladies were not qualified to live in the main courtyard." Xiaotao said.
"Are you telling the truth?" Shu'er asked.
"How dare Xiao Tao lie to you? Of course everything he said is true." Xiao Tao said.
"However, the young master has never regarded me as his concubine. I know that I am not qualified. I am afraid that I am only qualified to be a maid by his side." Shu Er said.
"Girl, why do you have to belittle yourself? The young master has never thought of it this way. I once heard Sister Ran'er say privately that the young master treats you differently," Xiao Tao said.
"You don't have to coax me. I'm not as beautiful as a fairy. How could the young master treat me differently? Besides, you just said that the young master treats the ladies in the backyard equally, so how can he treat me differently?" Shu
The son said.
While the two were talking, the young master of the Zhao family had returned from Yunhe's yard. He happened to hear Shu'er's voice and entered the room and said, "Shu'er, why do I feel so bitter when I hear you speak?"
"Master, why are you here?" Shuer stood up and said.
"Weren't you always looking forward to my coming? Now that I'm here, you still ask why?" said the young master of the Zhao family.
"I do look forward to the young master coming over, but I know that the young master is going to visit sister Yun He, so naturally I don't dare to say anything more," Shu'er said.
Seeing the young master coming in, Xiao Tao planned to go out and pour him a cup of tea, but the young master of the Zhao family happened to see him. So the young master of the Zhao family continued: "I didn't expect Shu'er to look so jealous, but Xiao Tao looked a little different today.
Hairpin, Xiao Tao looks so beautiful wearing this hairpin." said the young master of the Zhao family.
The young master of the Zhao family was attracted by Xiao Tao, and Shu'er's face became very ugly when he saw the disguise. Xiao Tao quickly lowered his head and said: "This hosta is a gift from the girl. The young master will chat with the girl for a while, and Xiao Tao will go and prepare some."
Bring the tea."
"No need, I was delayed for a while and it's time to go back. You can take the tea to the main room." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Master..." Xiao Tao asked.
"What's wrong? Oh, Shu'er, let me ask Xiaotao to bring you a cup of tea. Is that okay?" asked the young master of the Zhao family.
"Of course it's okay, Xiao Tao, go ahead and prepare." Shu'er said.
"Yes." Xiao Tao said.
The young master took Xiao Tao out of the house. Shu'er looked at Xiao Tao's back fiercely, never expecting that a hosta could attract the young master's attention. She really regretted that she shouldn't have put this hosta on Xiao Tao.
Seeing Xiao Tao go to the kitchen, Shu'er turned around and entered the house.
After Xiaotao prepared tea for the young master, she took
Entered the house.
The young master took a sip of tea and said, "Did Shuer say anything after she came back?"
"When the girl came back, she suddenly bought me a hosta. I naturally knew what she wanted to do. When I came back, I heard that the young master went to Miss Yunhe's yard and said a lot of mean things." Xiao Tao said.
"This girl won't say anything to you. You have worked hard these days." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"Master, it's not hard for me, slave. By the way, Miss Shu'er suddenly became interested in what happened in the yard before, so I told the girl exactly what the master had told her before. Although she didn't say anything, she looked at it
She seems to care about it." Xiao Tao said.
"You must be careful what you say around her. After all, she is doing things for Mr. Luo." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"My servant is not afraid of Mr. Luo, but because of the young master's actions today, Miss Shu'er may not be able to spare me," Xiao Tao said.
"Don't worry, she doesn't dare to do anything to you. After all, she has her own plans." The young master of the Zhao family said.jj.br
"Yes, Master, can I go back?" Xiao Tao said.
"Well, that's enough." The young master of the Zhao family said.
Although Xiao Tao only stayed in the inner room for a quarter of an hour, Shu'er still felt uncomfortable. But she knew that she had to be twice as kind to Xiao Tao. If anything happened to Xiao Tao, the young master would definitely think that she was a vicious woman.
.
When Xiao Tao came back, she stood carefully next to Shu'er. Shu'er looked up and saw that the hairpin on Xiao Tao's head was gone.
"Where's the hairpin on your head?" Shu'er asked.
Xiao Tao handed the hairpin in her hand to Shu'er and said, "Girl, Xiaotao didn't expect that a hairpin would attract the young master's attention. Xiaotao knew that it was inappropriate to wear this hairpin, so she might as well leave it to the right person.
"
"Why isn't it suitable? Even the young master said it looks good, so it's the most suitable one." Shu'er said.
"Girl, aren't you angry?" Xiao Tao said.
"Fool, how could I be angry? You look good with the hairpin, so I'm naturally happy too." Shu'er said.
"Thank you, girl." Xiao Tao said.
After Xiao Tao left, Shu'er was so angry that she couldn't sleep. Although she turned out the candle and lay down early, she kept tossing and turning on the couch. How could she not be angry? The young master finally came to her place, but was attracted by a little girl.
It passed. She didn't pay attention before. Just now she looked at Xiao Tao carefully and found that Xiao Tao was really a beauty. If she dressed up well, she seemed to be as good as herself.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and it was after midnight that I reluctantly fell asleep.
The young master in the room was different. After taking a bath, he sat on the couch drinking tea and laughed out loud. Then he asked curiously: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
"You don't know how Shu'er looked just now, it was so funny." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"Master, aren't you afraid that Shu'er will be harmful to Xiaotao?" Ran'er asked.
"She doesn't dare to attack Xiaotao, isn't she afraid that I will think she is a vicious woman?" said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Miss Shu'er seems to really like the young master, why don't the young master think about it?" Ran'er said jokingly.
"She doesn't really like me at all and wants to attract my attention, just because I am the young master of the Zhao family." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"Young master, you should rest early. Don't you have important things tomorrow morning?" Ran'er said.
"You're right, it's time to rest early. You go and bring Tao'er here secretly. You two will stay vigil outside tonight." The young master of the Zhao family said.
Ran'er knew that the young master of the Zhao family hoped that Miss Shu'er would misunderstand that the person accompanying the young master in the evening was Tao'er. If the young master just saw Tao'er's beauty, it would be enough to call him over and say a few words, but if the person who is sleeping with him is
Tao'er, Miss Shu'er will definitely not be able to bear it. If this happens, Miss Shu'er will definitely show her flaws.
After the young master of the Zhao family finished speaking, he turned around and entered the inner room. Then he helped close the door to the inner room, extinguished the candle, and then pushed the door open and left the house.
Ran'er quietly went to Xiao Tao's room, lit the candle, and patted Xiao Tao's body gently. Xiao Tao was not the only one in Xiao Tao's room, but there was also a girl living with Xiao Tao.
Drowsily, Xiao Tao felt someone pushing her and rubbed her eyes.
Jing stood up and saw that the candle had been lit. When he took a closer look, the person who came in was actually Ran'er. So, he asked a series of questions: "Sister Ran'er, don't you have to keep vigil tonight? Why are you here at this time?"
Ran'er said helplessly: "Did you really not understand what the young master meant today?"
"Master? I just made him a cup of tea and sent it over. The master didn't say anything special to me?" Xiao Tao asked even more puzzled.
"Oh my little aunt, you are really slow, come with me quickly." Miss Ran'er said.
"Where are you going so late?" Xiao Tao asked.
"Of course it's the young master's main room. Just now the young master was saying why you haven't gone there yet, and I saw that you were already asleep. Come with me quickly, the young master will become angry after a while." Ran'er said.
"Sister Ran'er, what do you mean?" Xiao Tao asked.
"It's better not to ask. Just follow me to the main room. Once you get in, you will obey me and don't ask anything." Ran'er said.
When Xiao Tao was still full of doubts, Ran'er simply put on some clothes and dragged her out of the house. Ran'er blew out the candle before leaving, but the maid who lived with Xiao Tao slowly opened her eyes.
.
Ran'er pulled Xiao Tao into the main room, then went into the inner room alone, helped the young master turn off the light and close the door, and then said to Xiao Tao: "We will keep vigil tonight, and we will sleep in the outer room together."
Xiao Tao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It turns out that Sister Ran'er just asked me to stay vigil with you. If you had told me earlier, I thought it was something wrong with you."
After Xiao Tao finished speaking, she sat at the door of the inner room, then walked over and pulled Xiao Tao up and said, "We're not here to keep vigil."
Ran'er had packed up the couch a long time ago, and it was just right for one person to sleep on. Xiao Tao said softly: "Are we going to sleep on this couch?"
"That's right, this is the young master's order. Just lie down when you are told to sleep." Ran'er said.
"Yes, Sister Ran'er." Xiao Tao said.
Xiao Tao and Ran'er extinguished the candles and lay down on the couch in the outer room to rest. Ran'er gently said to Xiao Tao: "You can't tell others about staying vigil with me tonight. If rumors spread, you don't have to admit it.
